Site on one side, Zoho Billing on the other, both talking to each other cleanly. ShifteQ figured out the plumbing. Now I know who owes us what without opening a spreadsheet.

Our approach
Built to last, easy to live with.
Three principles every build is held to, so the site stays fast, easy to edit, and ages well.
Built around your business
Code written from your spec, not retrofitted from a generic plugin. The build follows how your business actually works.
Made for the WordPress way
Plugins, blocks, and integrations that fit the editor your team already knows. No Frankensteining, no fighting the platform.
Engineered to evolve
Clean architecture and modern WP APIs, so the code keeps up as your business, your stack, and WordPress itself change.
Why not just plugins
A pile of plugins, or one system built for you.
Plugins are fine for common needs. Stitching twenty together to fake a custom feature is not.
A pile of plugins
A different vendor behind every feature
Plugins that conflict and bloat each other
Updates break things you did not touch
A custom build
One codebase, written to your spec
Reviewed and tested before it ships
An asset that scales, not a liability
How we build
Built like software, not stitched together.
This is what stops a custom build from becoming an orphan script no one wants to touch.

Staging
How a project runs
Five stages. Each one signed off.
Every stage approved before the next moves. No surprises at handover.
01
Scope
Map the spec, agree the deliverable, and lock a fixed quote before any code is written.
02
Build
Work happens in feature branches, against your spec, with frequent check-ins on progress.
03
Review
Every change is code-reviewed and tested before it leaves the development environment.
04
Stage
The build goes onto a staging copy of your site, end-to-end checked across browsers and devices.
05
Launch
Shipped to live with monitoring, documentation, and a maintenance path that does not orphan the code.
Safety net
A custom build is a big call. We take the risk out.
Custom code is a long bet. We make sure yours pays off, with ownership, fixed scope, and a maintenance path you can hand to anyone.
You own the code
Full source in your Git from day one. No vendor lock-in, no licensing games.
Maintained, not orphaned
Every build gets a care path. What we ship, we keep alive with updates and fixes.
Fixed fee, scoped upfront
Quoted from the spec before any code. No open-ended hours, no scope creep without sign-off.
Reviewed and tested
Code-reviewed, tested where it counts, shipped via staging. Never direct to live.

Real businesses, real WordPress builds. Click any one to see it live.
And many more, including white-label and private client work we cannot show here.
In their words
Clients we built for.
From integrations to long-running custom builds. The teams below trusted us with the code under their site.
For two years Kamran has handled our site personally. Fast responses, real optimization work, and ideas we did not ask for that still moved the needle. The team is solution-first. Working with them feels less like vendor management and more like having an in-house web partner.

My job is selling picture cars. ShifteQ’s job is making sure the inventory shows up online before the buyer scrolls past. We have both kept our jobs.
Ted Moser
CEO, Picture Car Warehouse
Fourseas sells electric outboards, foldable kayaks, paddleboards: gear people order before a trip. The site has to work the day they decide to buy. ShifteQ keeps the eCommerce side running so we never miss that window.

ShifteQ designed and built the Circuit9 site, then stayed on for hosting, workspace, and ongoing support. Everything looks the way we want it to and stays out of our way. That is the whole brief.
Vivek Jashoriya
Studio Head, Circuit9
The hard part was wiring two pricing tiers, retail and salon professionals, into one store. ShifteQ delivered it cleanly and three years on, the system still runs the business. Complex requirements, practical solutions.

FAQ
Before we write the first line.
Common questions on scope, stack, ownership, and what we hand over at the end.
They overlap. Design is mostly about how the site looks and reads. Development is mostly about what it does: custom features, integrations, bespoke code. A Development project usually includes design work for any new screens or flows we build. A Design project can include custom code where it needs to. We scope what your project actually needs, not what the label says.
